对今日诗句的想法
我们因恩典而行事工。我们得救，并变得圣洁是因为神在耶稣里赐给我们恩典。因为耶稣的恩典，我们在上帝面前圣洁和没有瑕疵。因为耶稣的恩典，我们把受赐的天赋用于教会的事工里。因为神在耶稣的恩典，帮助我们在困难的时候得到圣灵赋予我们的力量坚持下去。那么，我们发现自己能胜任什么事工，我们有什么机会服务，使人们的生活发生变化，我们被赋予什么力量使我们可以履行我们的事工。这不是拿来吹嘘的事情。正如因荣耀主我们把自己献给上帝那样，主的力量在软弱面前完美呈现。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
We minister by grace. We are saved and made holy by God's grace given us by Jesus. We are declared righteous and blameless before God because of the grace of Jesus. We are given spiritual gifts to use in ministry for the Church because of the grace of Jesus. We are given strength from the Holy Spirit to persevere during difficult times because of the grace of God in Jesus. So, what ministry we find ourselves capable of performing, what opportunities we have to serve and make a difference in people's lives, and what power we have in fulfilling our ministry are all given to us by grace. Our ministry, service, and efforts are not something we boast about. The Lord's power is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9-11) as we offer ourselves to him to be used for his glory.

My Prayer...
Glorify your name, O God, the Eternal Father of grace. Thank you for Jesus, who has redeemed, gifted, strengthened, led, and empowered me to serve. May you be glorified in all that I say and do. In Jesus' name. Amen.
